Summer 2018 Recap, we had a very busy summer!
Shopping Carts: The Pantry received a grant from the Columbia Bank Foundation to purchase shopping carts for many of our clients.
New Freezer: The Pantry received a grant from New Jersey Natural Gas to purchase a much needed freezer.
Student Volunteer Program: Many students from the local schools assisted our all- volunteer staff to serve our community. Our young volunteers were able to see first hand and learn what hunger is all about. They not only helped us but they also served the community.
Fresh Produce: Farmers Against Hunger regularly provided fresh produce for the pantry during the summer months.
Back to School Program: the pantry in partnership with Bridges at the Shore was able to provide basic school supplies to many families in the community.
Summer Hunger Program: The pantry provided special allocations of food for the children to supplement the regular food allocation during the summer months.
